Food costs are high in Phoenix, not as high as some other cities, but still high. I like eating high on the hog when there's a budget for that...otherwise, when times were tough my kids and everybody else that dropped in at supper time ate what was served...stone soup with folks ya love ain't that bad.
Adding that farmer's market produce here is higher priced and is out of the question for most folks that are on a strict budget.

I don't really use recipes. Since I was little I just had a sense of what ingredients to use and it would always come out wonderful. I LOVE my food! She likes all kinds of food, nothing she really doesn't like, but she won't touch mine even though I think its delicious. She will just go to bed and cry instead of eating my food.

Go to bed and cry? Not trying to be harsh here, so don't take this the wrong way, but you need to make her start cooking. No way in the world I would go to bed and cry because I didn't like something my husband cooked. But, I grew up really poor, and learned early that I ate what my mom could afford. I think it's awful generous and thoughtful of you to do the cooking. My husband cooks every Sunday morning and his special dishes, and I am grateful to him that he would work all day and half the night and still cook for me.
Maybe, she is just trying to get you to take her out to eat. Some people sometimes do not take into consideration that it isn't affordable.
Set her down and ask her, what would like for me to cook tonight. If she doesn't like it after that, let her cry herself to sleep, or let her do all the cooking. If there really isn't anything that she dislikes, then I have a feeling it isn't really your cooking.
